Invisalign

Looking for a way to straighten your smile without the hassle of traditional metal braces? Invisalign® might just be your best option!

What Is Invisalign and How Does It Work?

Invisalign® is a clear aligner system used to straighten teeth. It uses a series of custom-made, removable trays to shift teeth into their desired position gradually. Moreover, our skilled dentists change the aligners every few weeks to keep up with the movement of the teeth.

What Orthodontic Issues Can Invisalign Correct?

• Crowded Teeth

  Brushing and flossing can’t effectively clean hard-to-reach areas when teeth overlap or bunch up due to insufficient space in the mouth. For this reason, patients with crowded teeth risk developing plaque and tartar buildup, tooth decay, cavities, and gum disease. Fortunately, the Invisalign system can address mild and severe cases to improve overall health.

• Gapped Teeth

  In addition to trapping food particles, irregular spacing between teeth can lead to gum disease. If left untreated, spacing problems can also trigger issues with the temporomandibular joint (TMJ) that usually result in discomfort or pain in the jaw. You can proactively mitigate these potential oral health concerns by straightening your teeth with Invisalign® aligners.

• Bad Bites

  When the upper and lower teeth don’t fit together correctly when the mouth is closed, it leads to bite problems or malocclusions, such as an overbite, underbite, crossbite, and open bite. Leaving a bad bite untreated will result in headaches, speech difficulties, and a heightened risk of teeth damage. Invisalign aligners work to correct a bad bite by gradually shifting teeth to their desired positions.
